SWINIFRED
PrOf.C. AIphOnsO Smith Answered--The
Poem.


Especial Cor STATE CHRoNICLE.1
In the CHRONICLE of Sept. goth, Mr.. c.
Alphonso Smith enquiries for the author
ship of the following lines:
"W hat though no grants of royal donors
With pompous titles grace our blood;
Well shine III more substantial honOurs,
And to be noble, Well be good"
and says he will cheerfully become a sub
scrber to any weekly newspaper in North
Carolina that will answer this question, by
naming, and being the first to name, the
author and the heading of the poem from
which the quotation is made.
The lines occur in little poem called
s'Winifreda," p" copy of which enclose 1t
is found in a collection of ballads and
other poems published in 1765, by DR..
Thomas Percy, afterwards Bishop of Dro-
more, under the title of Reliques of An
cient English Poetry. The authorship of
Winifreda has been attributed to Dr. Percy
himself, though never claimed by him.
The poems in his collection were, for the
most part, songs of the people, many of
which had never before appeared in print.
Some of them were mere fragments which
he had picked up and amended.
Percy's Reliques, it is said, contributed
to give direction to the youthful genius of
many illustriOus writer's, amongw W ON are
mentioned Wordsworth. Coeridge and
Tennyson, and as for Walter Scott, his
boyish enthusiasm was stirred las with
the sound of trumpet by the vivid re-
citals of the old Border rhapsodists. Scott
himself says, "the first time | could scrape
few shillings together-which We're not
common occurrences with mel bough,
unto myself a copy of these beloved sol
umes QPercy's Reliques), nor do | believe
| ever read a book half 80 frequently OF
with half the enthusiasm"
DR.. Percy enjoyed the friendship of DR.
Samuel Johnson, and an interesting ant
rather amusing conversation between then
is reported by Boswell in his life of the
latter.
Now though I have not given with Ger
tainty the name of the author of the line!
in question, | think | have come as near tt
it as is practicable at this day. and shall
claim that Mr.. Smith fulfill his promise
in behalf of the CHRONICLE, if he is no
already subscriber.

the opinion he desires to be the Democratic
candidate for Governor. We have reason
to believe he would not allow his name to
go before the convention for the place.
That he aspires for a seat in the U. S.
Senate there is hardly any room for doubt.
Ransom will not be wanting in support for
reelection. 1t Will be found that he is
hard man to beat. Jarvis is his most for
midable rival. Waddell and Scales are
looking wistfully in that direction, also.
